Full article:
Debut albums like this happen once in a blue moon, and I'm certainly not anticipating anything else half as pulse-poundingly rivetting before the end of 2013. Me is an Aussie quartet hailed as 'glam pop metal pioneers', but that barely hints at their ability to jam ideas from every musical genre known to mankind into glorious, vibrantly celebratory pop. Their smart songs, awash with XTC-like switches of mood and time signature, plus the modern magpie suss of Panic! At The Disco, also have hints of The Kinks and Queen thrown in for good measure. As songwriters and performers, they're so ridiculously accomplished I'll wager Me will be stadium fillers one day.
